A significant role in this success is also played by the music, which was composed especially for the series by a number of talented and recognized composers.
A significant role in this success is undoubtedly played by the music, which was specially composed for the series by such composers as Oscar-winning composers John Williams and Alexandre Desplat, as well as the talented Patrick Doyle and Nicholas Hooper.
John Williams composed the music for the first three films of the Potter series. For example, the famous Hedwig theme, the classic Hogwarts theme for Double Trouble sung by the children’s choir, or the cheerful Aunt Marge’s waltz. Patrick Doyle’s “Hogwarts Anthem” from the fourth Harry Potter film takes the audience into the mysterious and dark world of the Triwizard Tournament.
Nicholas Hooper composed “Farewell to Dumbledore” for the fifth and sixth Harry Potter films. Alexandre Desplat, whose talent includes “Lily’s Theme”, composed the music for the last two series.
The performance will feature orchestral musicians, talented soloists and a vocal ensemble. The show “Hogwarts Magic Symphony” in Riga will take place as part of a European concert tour. Tickets are available at all “Biļešu Serviss” box offices.
